Multi-DNC Monitoring – What does it do?

Monitoring is an add-in option to Multi-DNC, licensed by the
number of Monitored Machines in the Multi-DNC system.

CNC Machines are automatically monitored as they are
making parts in full production.

Monitoring tracks what Part is running, Part Cycle Time,
Spindle Time, Idle time, CNC Alarms, Power On/Off, User
Log-ins, and DNC program transfers.

All monitored Machine Events are written to a SQL
database. Each individual event is date and time stamped.

A Web based Monitoring interface provides a rich variety of
Reports to analyze the Machine Event data.
What hardware is used for Monitoring?
Multi-DNC Monitoring – Hardware used




Monitoring uses the Spectrum
WiBox device that is an
Ethernet to RS-232 Device
Server with (8) digital inputs.
There is no need to use
external PLC’s or other
adapters.
The WiBox is mounted inside
the CNC Control and powered
by it’s internal DC voltage.
CNC Control I/O is connected
to the WiBox for the required
Machine Event signals.
The WiBox can be connected
by wireless or wired Ethernet
to the Multi-DNC system.
Multi-DNC Monitoring – How does it work?



As your parts run in production, each Machine Event is
automatically written to a SQL database. The machine data is
then instantly available to analyze using the web based Multi-DNC
Monitoring and Reports software.
You can setup the shift times that your company uses as well as
break times and other planned downtime.
You can configure the desired shift performance of your CNC
Machines and then track the logged in CNC Operators
performance over time.

There is a Part database to organize your parts with an Approved
Cycle time and a history of when the parts were run.

The Real Time Dashboard window shows the current status of
multiple monitored CNC Machines.

Monitoring also
includes Messaging
functions
Multi-DNC Monitoring – Messaging




Multi-DNC Monitoring has an
extensive Messaging system for
critical events such as Machine
Alarms to notify the correct
person as soon as possible.
Messages can be sent by e-mail
or by text message to show up
directly on a cell phone.
Messages can escalate to three
different levels over time and
sent to different people. In this
example the 1st message is sent 2
minutes after the Alarm, the 2nd
message after 20 minutes and
the 3rd after 40 minutes.
If the Alarm is cleared before 20
minutes have elapsed, then the
other messages are not sent.
The Monitoring Configuration Manager
Multi-DNC Monitoring – Configuration Manager


Multi-DNC Monitoring has
a Configuration Manager
where you can set up
many parameters for your
Monitoring System.
You can set up Shift
Hours, Break and Lunch
times, a CNC Operators
Database, Performance
Targets, and a Part
Database
Details of the Part Database
The Part Database helps you to
organize your companies parts and
also keeps a history log of the time
each part was run.
Multi-DNC Monitoring – Part Database


The Part Database allows
you to show a digital
picture or a solid model
screen capture of each
part, along with a
backplotted CNC program
graphic.
Additional fields include
the Approved Cycle Time,
Version, Revision#,
Operation# and Release
Status. Also shown is the
preferred CNC Machine to
use as well as the CNC
programs name and its
network location.
